    The Times, another £2 MOC off Esquire magazine on page 63 of main paper, same terms as per yesterday's thread.
    There are TWO of these coupons in today's Times - another on page 92!

    From my understanding of legitimate coupon use even though the HM & Esquire coupons scan, if it says for use in WH Smiths, we shouldn't be using the coupon in Tesco's. (I bought 4 copies of The Times yesterday before reading that the Esquire coupon was valid for use in W H Smiths only and therefore binned the coupons from the 4 papers.) I don't want to risk using non-legit coupons which may, in the end, mean that T's change their coupon policy. (If I am wrong can someone tell me quickly so I can retrieve my coupons from the bin and go on the hunt for some copies of The Sun!)

    You are quite right, the coupons will scan but should not be used in Tesco as they cannot get the money back and this could affect future coupon policy at Mr T which at the moment is very generous I think.

    I didn't read the voucher before I went to Tescos and realise it said Smiths only. The person serving spotted this and gave it me back. Obviously it works on the self scans. My Tesco hasn't got any.

    The Scottish Daily Express also has, in addition to the Alpro Soya and Ok MOCs, 6 MOCs off the Express for the next 6 days. That's 50p off tomorrow and 5x 15p for next week.

    Only valid on those particular days. Page 37. :)

    Great buy today - £3.04 worth of MOCs for 65p. :D

    re: Attenborough DVD offer from the Mirror
    I need the address to send my vouchers to. Does anyone have a Sept 26th issue of the Mirror and can give me the address to send my vouchers to?
    Cheers!

    I was "tongue-in-cheek" making reference to the Esquire coupon yesterday which cortonne spoted, then later mmlh posted saying T&C said W H Smith only.
    Normaly Mag coupons don't usually specify one store only.....hence most of us buying several copies of the paper, and complaining lately of no high value coupons about for weeks now.
    Even the free mags and stickers etc have been able to be used against other shopping.
    1) I was hoping it would be a 99 coupon worth £1.99
    2) I was automatically assuming it didn't specify a specific store - hence my joking aside about yesterday and Smiths. ( that is why I put :D;) - to show I was making a little joke !)

    Not only does the coupon specify Smiths, but clearly my humour has back-fired.
    I will shut up !!:o

    lol
    No worries

    It sounded from your post youwere meaniong something else

    As I've said before this is the problem with the typed word, which has no inflections in the voice, no facial expressions to accompany it, so often is misconstrued.

    Offers hand to shake (Or offers kiss if you're a sexy young man;) :beer: )

    I agree, i do not want tesco abandoning their policy

    i get the sun anyway and although my daughter is not a HM fan, I am sure she'll get some enjoyment from the magazine
